Beijing, Dec 7: China and US today held their annual defence dialogue in a bid to avoid misjudgement between their militaries amid Beijings’s increased assertiveness in the South China Sea and Washington’s move to enhance its presence in the Asia-Pacific region.
“The fact that the consultations took place as scheduled shows that both countries are being sincere about maintaining military exchanges,” Gen. Ma Xiaotian, deputy chief of the General Staff of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA), said at the start of the consultations.
